UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICEo EDWIN CYRUS WASHBURN, OF NEVADA, MISSOURI.

COMBINED GATE ROLLER AND HINGE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 330,648, dated November 1'7, 1885.

Application filed September 6,1884. Se1z1lNo.142,400. (Model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Beit known that I, EDWIN GYRUs WASH- 'BTTRN, of Nevada, Vernon county, Missouri,

ofthe roller and hinge as applied to' a gate, Y

and Fig. 2 isa side view of the hinge.

A A are two wrought-iron plates, receiving between their upper portions the roller B upon a cross-pin or aXis,a. Beneath the roller the back plate, A', is bent to form aange, b, that is riveted to plate A, so as to hold the two plates firmly together, and from the iiange the lower end of the plate A is bent outward to form a socket or recess, c, that receives the eye of an eyebolt, d. A pin, e, passing vertically through the plate A and eye of bolt d, retains the latter in place and allows the hinge movement. The lower ends of plates A A form ajaw,f, which,when the device isin place receives the upperedge of the gateboard below the one resting on the roller,thereby holding the gate more steadily.

The screw-pin is to be screwed into the gatepost, as shown. The second board ofthe gate rests on roller B, and the jaw f is set over the third board. The gate thus hung can be rolled back in the usual manner, and it can also be swung on the hinge.

The hinge and the plates forming the body being of wrought-iron, the whole device is of the most substantial and durable character.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The herein-described gate roller and hinge7 consisting of the plates A A', riveted together, (the plate A being bent to form the socket 0,) the roller B,and the bolt d,pivoted in the socket of plate A', as set forth.

EDWIN CYRUS VVASHBURN.
